There is also a Bonus track feature on the CD - A Little less conversation (JXL Radio Edit Remix)
The CD cover is gold with the title across the middle. The cover also contains a few words with details about each song on the CD. The back cover has the track play list and a closeup picture of the bottom half of Elvis' face. The CD was produced in 2002 by BMG and distrubed by local BMG companies. This CD has been mixed and mastered from original master tapes from Elvis.
Whilst I am not an Elvis fan I found that this CD was OK to listen to. I would find that when I got into the car and this CD was playing I would not change it to another one. I have to admit that my personal favourite on this CD is track 26 - In the Ghetto as I find that the lyrics are very moving.
This CD was purchased for £14.99 but do shop around as it will probably have dropped in price by now.
Advantages: Lots of tracks ranging through the years. Disadvantages: not all the greats
I bought this album for myself when Elvis was coming back into fashion with the general masses when the single "A little less conversation" was released. You would think the title of the album being 30 No. 1's all the classics would be on there but i was sadly mistaken. Its funny to not find certain songs on there that you would definetly think were hits.
The cd is accompanied by a inner booklet that gives track listings and a small explanation ... ...them etc. At the back you have a section by which you can order Elvis merchandise. You can even apply for an Elvis credit card!!!
All the songs on the album are good but to get a better idea of how good Elvis really was you need to delve further than just a best of album. Maybe this album would suit someone who just wanted a brief dusting of elvis but fans will need to delve deeper. ...

Advantages: All the greatest hits Disadvantages: I cannot think of none in all honesty
How can i find a a disadvantage with someone so perfect when it comes to music this album is a must for any Elvis fan.
This is a faultless album that i have played over and over i never get tired of these hits and nor will you.
These songs are from his early days with RCA and his later days real classics and heart warming songs.
1. Heartbreak Hotel
A very raw 50's rockabilly style sound with matching lyrics with a good guitar solo using a echo effect to the whole song.
2. Don't Be Cruel
Again a 50's classic with plenty of subtle slightly muffled echo effect.
3. Hound Dog
A rockabilly sound with a bad boy type atmosphere about it.
4. Love Me Tender
A classic 50's love song, some marriages were made of this.
5. Too Much
6. All Shook Up
Another song in which he ...

Album Notes
Personnel includes: Elvis Presley (vocals); Gordon Stoker, Ben Speer, Brock Speer, Rad Robinson, Jon Dodson, Charles Prescott, Millie Kirham, Sherrill Nelson, Kathy Westmoreland, Myrna Smith; The Jordanaires; The Surfers; The Sweet Inspirations; The Imperials; J.D. Sumner & The Stamps. Producers include: Steve Sholes, Chet Atkins, Chips Moman, Felton Jarvis, Elvis Presley. Compilation producer: David Bendeth. Includes liner notes Peter Guralnick and Ernst Mikael Jorgensen. All tracks have been digitally remastered. Commemorating the 25th anniversary of Elvis Presley's death, 30 #1 HITS presents a career-spanning serving of the King's chart-toppers. Dating back to "Heartbreak Hotel" (which was inspired by a suicide note printed in the Miami Herald), most of these cuts have become indelibly etched into the fabric of pop culture and each has a unique story behind it. "Love Me Tender" has its origins in the Civil War ballad "Aura Lee," "It's Now Or Never" found Elvis Americanizing the Neapolitan ballad "O Sole Mio," and "Wooden Heart" likewise was converted from a German children's song. This Memphis native's choice of artists to cover was equally intriguing and includes Hollywood legend Al Jolson ("Are You Lonesome Tonight?"), New Orleans soul shouter Smiley Lewis ("One Night"), blues great Big Mama Thornton ("Hound Dog"), and country titan Hank Snow ("[Now And Then There's] A Fool Such As I"). Further testimony of Presley's long-lasting appeal is the inclusion of the JXL Radio Edit Remix of "A Little Less Conversation," a UK #1 that not only enabled Elvis to have more chart-toppers than The Beatles, but also became a hit in a number of other countries including the United States.
